Title: An interface between a system control unit and a service processing unit of a digital computer
IPC: G06F15/177
Filed: 1989-06-30
Abstract: A computer system includes a plurality of central 
processing units (CPUs), a main memory, a system control 
unit (SCU) for controlling the transfer of data between 
the CPUs and the main memory, and a service processing 
unit (SPU) to interface the computer system with the 
outside world, such as an operator console. The method 
used for interfacing the SPU and SCU includes delivering 
a BUFFER FULL handshaking signal from the SPU to the SCU 
in response to the SPU receive buffer having data 
contained therein and being unavailable to receive data. 
The SCU responds to the absence of the BUFFER FULL 
handshaking signal by delivering a TRANSMIT FRAME 
handshaking signal to the SCU. A preselected duration of 
time after delivering the transmit frame, the SCU 
delivers the actual data in a series of fourteen 
consecutive clock cycles. Further, the method for 
delivering data from the transmit buffer of the SPU to a 
receive buffer of the SCU includes delivering a BUFFER 
REQUEST handshaking signal from the SPU to the SCU in 
order to determine if a buffer is currently available in 
the SCU. When a receive buffer grant becomes available 
in the SCU, a buffer grant handshaking signal is 
delivered to the SPU. The SPU responds by delivering the 
actual data in fourteen consecutive clock cycles.

Title: Post-termination process for thick-film resistors of printed-circuit boards
IPC: H05K1/16
Filed: 1989-09-04
Abstract: A printed circuit board (10) includes both 
high and low resistive value thick film resistors 
interconnected by a copper film (18). To lower the 
contact resistance to the thick film resistors (12) 
of high value, each is provided at its ends with a 
termination (16A,16B) of a composition similar to 
that used for the low value resistors (16). This 
provides a relatively low-resistance contact region 
which overcomes the difficulty that a copper thick 
film conductor has in making electrical connections 
to compositions generally used for making high value 
thick film resistors. The compositions of high and 
low resistivities are adapted to permit firing of 
both compositions in a single firing step.

Title: Method for receiving binary digital signals
IPC: H04L7/033
Filed: 1990-05-16
Abstract: The aim is to effect the reception of a binary digital signal, which may also have phase shifts, with the aid of a delivered clock pulse, which has an arbitrary phase angle with respect to the digital signal and whose frequency can deviate somewhat from the bit sequence frequency of the digital signal. 
<??>The digital signal (D1) is delayed in a delay line (2-6) in such a way that a sequence of digital signals (D1-D6) having the same phase spacings is produced, from the rising and falling edges of which pulses (I11-I16) are derived. Interrogation pulses (I41), which are combined with the pulses (I11-I16) - to the extent that they are present - in assigned AND gates (14-19), are derived from the rising or falling edges of a clock pulse (T). Each output signal of one of these AND gates switches through the associated digital signal (D1-D6) in a downstream further AND gate (20-25) to an OR gate (26). The output signal (Dx) of this OR gate (26) is scanned in a D flipflop (32) by means of delayed interrogation pulses (I42) in such a way that the scanning is performed approximately one quarter clock pulse period after the effective edge of this output signal (Dx). 
<??>This arrangement can be used in ISDN broadband switching systems.

Title: Cache miss prediction method and apparatus
IPC: G06F12/08
Filed: 1990-06-08
Abstract: In a data processing system which employs a cache 
memory feature, a method and exemplary special purpose 
apparatus for practicing the method are disclosed to 
lower the cache miss ratio for called operands. Recent 
cache misses are stored in a first in, first out miss 
stack, and the stored addresses are searched for 
displacement patterns thereamong. Any detected pattern 
is then employed to predict a succeeding cache miss by 
prefetching from main memory the signal identified by 
the predictive address. The apparatus for performing 
this task is preferably hard wired for speed purposes 
and includes subtraction circuits for evaluating 
variously displaced addresses in the miss stack and 
comparator circuits for determining if the outputs from 
at least two subtraction circuits are the same 
indicating a pattern yielding information which can be 
combined with an address in the stack to develop a 
predictive address.

Title: Arm sealing device for an edm machine
IPC: B23H7/10
Filed: 1991-10-03
Abstract: A wire-cut electric discharging machine comprises 
a processing tank with an opening in one wall for the 
insertion of the lower arm unit. The lower arm unit is 
enclosed by a cylindrical pipe. The opening in the wall of 
the tank is sealed by a slide plate which moves in a 
direction parallel to the wall of the tank. Bellows 
interconnect the slide plate to the pipe 10 thereby 
providing a seal between the slide plate and pipe. The 
bellows expand and contract thereby allowing the processing 
tank to move along the axis of the lower arm unit while 
still providing a seal. Machining fluid flows through the 
pipe and around the lower arm unit. The fluid maintains the 
temperature of the lower arm unit at a constant value. The 
pipe protects the lower arm unit from being directly 
affected by the hydraulic pressure in the tank and also from 
being affected by motion of the tank. The sealing 
resistance for when the processing tank moves along the axis 
of the lower arm unit is significantly reduced.
